J The Producer Returns With Powerful New Single “Soul War”

Published

on

J The Producer, the rising gospel/soul artist and record producer from Texas, has just unveiled his latest single, “Soul War”. The track, written and produced entirely by J The Producer, showcases his exceptional talent. Accompanying the release is a visually stunning music video directed by Trent Owens, further enhancing the song’s powerful message.

J The Producer’s music is deeply rooted in the gospel message of Jesus, aiming to warn, encourage and guide individuals to repent and find salvation through God. Through his captivating melodies and thought-provoking lyrics, J The Producer seeks to utilise music to reach people’s hearts and minds.

Speaking about the inspiration behind “Soul War”, J The Producer shares, “There is a force within every human that drives them to do evil or tries to convince them to do what harms others or themselves. There is only one source of power to conquer this force of evil and that is the power of God whose name is Yahweh through the knowledge of his Son Yeshua of Nazareth (Jesus Christ) the saviour of mankind. This came to mind while I was in the studio one night and hence came the birth of this song. Its beginning was a personal encouragement for me but was then turned to encourage others, which is why it’s being released as a single.”

“Soul War” explores the inner struggles individuals face, particularly the constant battle between good and evil. The song serves as a reminder that although this war may feel arduous at times, looking up to Jesus brings hope and the strength to overcome. With its heartfelt message and soul-stirring vocals, “Soul War” is set to resonate deeply with listeners. “Soul War” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://jtheproducer.com/xeojqm5.

Marz Starlife Makes A Striking First Impression With Healing

Published

Every once in a while, a debut comes along that doesn’t just introduce an artist – it reveals a soul. Marz Starlife’s first EP, Healing, is exactly that. It’s raw, it’s heartfelt, and it doesn’t pretend to have everything figured out. Instead, it leans into the messiness of real life – the mistakes, the heartbreak, the isolation – and tries to make sense of it all through music. Born in Jamaica, raised in the UK, and now back on the island, Marz brings a cross-cultural perspective to his storytelling, but at the heart of Healing is something deeply human: the need to reckon with the past in order to move forward.

Across the project’s standout tracks, Marz doesn’t hold back. In Bad Memories, he opens up about years lost to incarceration, fractured relationships, and the weight of regret. “Spent four birthdays locked up, baby remember me please,” he raps, in a tone that’s both matter-of-fact and aching. The production stays subdued and moody, letting the lyrics breathe. There’s no glorification of the streets here, only reflection. He admits to being young and caught up in the chase for fast money, but he also shows growth, making it clear that he’s not the same person he once was. It’s a track that lingers, not because it tries to be flashy, but because it feels real.

The title track, Healing, is where everything clicks. Marz taps into something almost spiritual as he raps, “I turn pain into power, darkness to light.” The song is layered with poetic lines and subtle emotional shifts, balancing toughness with tenderness. There’s a determination to rise above, even when the scars still sting. He reflects on his upbringing, his time in the streets, and the inner battles he continues to fight. “No shrink can understand how I’m feeling,” he says, and honestly, it’s hard not to believe him. The pain here is too specific, too lived-in. But instead of letting it swallow him, he uses it to fuel something greater.

What’s refreshing about Healing is that it doesn’t try to fit neatly into any one genre or narrative. Marz blends elements of UK hip-hop, Jamaican rhythm, and emotional rap into something that feels uniquely his own. He’s not here to be the loudest or the flashiest; he’s here to be honest. And in a world full of over-produced, over-polished music, that honesty stands out.

With Healing, Marz Starlife has given us more than a debut; he’s given us a mirror into his journey, and maybe even our own. Whether you’ve lived through similar struggles or are just someone who appreciates music with depth and heart, this EP is worth your time. It’s a reminder that healing isn’t linear, but it’s possible, and that sometimes telling your story is the most powerful thing you can do.
